Pressure Testing Gas Supply Piping System

Test Pressures In Excess Of 1/2 PSIG

1. Disconnect fireplace and its individual

manual shutoff valve from gas supply

Test Pressures Equal To or Less Than 1/2 PSIG

1.Close manual shutoff valve (see Fig- ure 20).

2.Pressurize supply piping system by ei- ther using compressed air or opening propane/LP supply tank valve.

3.Check all joints from propane/LP sup- ply to manual shutoff valve (see Fig- ure 21). Apply mixture of liquid soap and water to gas joints. Bubbles form- ing show a leak.
